The piano is unquestionably the most all encompassing jazz instrument.
With individual notes; scales; arpeggios, chords; tones and harmonics, it’s capable of embracing the widest possible range of feelings and emotions. It’s a challenge for anyone attempting to master its potential.
Over the years many new styles in jazz have been created and been mastered in many different ways, such as Ragtime, Stride, Boogie Woogie, Swing, Modal and many more.
And the genius list of pianists includes, among many others, those who changed the face of jazz:
Dave Brubeck, Bill Evans, Earl Hines, Errol Garner, Herbie Hancock, James P. Johnson, Teddy Johnson, Scott Joplin, Thelonius Monk, Jelly Roll Morton, Oscar Peterson, Bud Powell, George Shearing, Horace Silver, Art Tatum, McCoy Tyner and Fats Waller.
Please join us for today’s Jazz Masters in this Jazz Solo Piano Series at London’s newest jazz, and already highly rated, venue Piano Smithfield.
